Speaker of the People's Council of Syria Hadiya Khalaf Abbas made the remark in response to a question by Mehr News correspondent on the sidelines of the 6th International Conference on Palestinian Intifada currently underway in Tehran with representatives of 80 countries in attendance.
She also voiced the appreciation of Syrian people for Iran’s unsparing and generous supports to Syria in fighting terrorism, adding “without doubt, if it were not for Iran’s support, the resistance of Syrian nation would have not resulted in victory.”
The Syrian parliament speaker touched upon her country’s cooperation with the Islamic Republic in combating Takfiri terrorism in Syria, adding “this cooperation and support have yielded very good results and the crisis in Syria has moved toward a more manageable state both politically and military wise.”
Highlighting the need for further expansion of Tehran-Damascus relations, she maintained that Syria attaches great importance to all-out cooperation with Iran.
She further deemed the holding of Tehran’s conference in support of Palestinian Intifada of high importance considering the current dire situation of Palestinian people, adding “the conference can have very good impact in support of the Palestinian cause, especially under the current situation where Arab and Western countries are trying to make the world forget about the issue of Palestine.”
